The Switch has turned out to be an incredibly popular console with a wide array of titles available. Whether gamers are looking for unique indie gems, Nintendo’s massive IP, or remasters of some of their old favorites, the Switch probably has a few games available for everyone. While there are still plenty of games that gamers are hoping to see announced for the console, such as a larger Virtual Console, Nintendo has gone to great lengths to support the Switch with a lineup of great games.
Many games released on it have already defined the genre, such as Breath of the wild and Mario odyssey. However, the company still has many more plans for the Switch, including some of its own massive AAA titles and titles from other studios. Whether gamers are eagerly awaiting awesome mini-games or a new way to catch them all Pokemon, Nintendo has them covered.
WarioWare Gather
WarioWare Gather is a brand new entry in the series known for its frenetic mini-games that scroll extremely fast. The most recent entry in the WarioWare the series promises to have an even bigger selection of board games for groups to try out while featuring some of everyone’s best characters. WarioWarethe story.
Terror Metroid
Terror of the metroids was a bit of a surprise announcement, especially with its imminent release. The game promises to end Metroid‘s storyline that has been going on for decades while delivering classic new gameplay for fans of the series who are hoping that Terror of the metroids will only be the beginning of a new era of Metroid Games.
Mario Party Superstars
Super Mario Party on the Switch did not receive the warmest of greetings from fans and critics. Many gamers felt that the game did not offer enough content for its total price, while others were also disappointed with its lack of DLC content after its release. However, Mario Party Superstars hope to fix this by bundling some of the fan favorite games and platters into one package for the ultimate Mario party experience on Switch.
Shin Megami Tensei 5
The eagerly awaited Shin Megami Tensei 5 was also revealed with a full trailer that has fans of the series eager to return to the legendary JRPG franchise. Now the fans are just waiting for the Character series to make a similar appearance on the console.
Pokemon Shiny Diamond and Shiny Pearl
Shiny Diamond Pokémon and Shiny pearl aim to bring back what fans love about the Switch by remastering two of the most influential games in the series. The remakes promise a graphical improvement as well as small gameplay tweaks that should help Shiny Diamond Pokémon and Shiny pearl play a little more slowly too.
Pokémon Legends: Arceus
Pokemon fans can expect Pokémon Legends: Arceus, which brings a breath of fresh air to the series by taking it to the open world. Exactly how the game will approach the show’s open world remains to be seen, but it’s an exciting new possibility for the franchise nonetheless.
Splatoon 3
Players also have the latest ink-based team shooter Splatoon 3 to look forward to. Nintendo hasn’t revealed much about the game either, but its gorgeous and colorful visuals will undoubtedly benefit the Nintendo Switch OLED greatly.
Triangle Strategy Project
Triangle Strategy Project is probably still a long way off, especially since the title is even still a working title. However, the game received a demo shortly after its announcement that got many turn-based RPG fans excited for the latest entry in the genre. Hopefully fans will have more news on Triangle Strategy Project soon.
Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope
Ubisoft’s turn-based shooter Mario + Rabbids: Battle of the Kingdom was a surprise hit among many Nintendo fans. The game combined two unlikely franchises for a new genre that neither of them had touched before, but it did surprisingly well. The success of the first game has many players eagerly awaiting its sequel.
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 is one of the most anticipated games on the Nintendo Switch. The first game’s unique take on the open-world genre attracted many new fans to the series and has since had a huge influence on the industry. Fortunately, there are big fans of games of Breath of the wild can play while waiting for the continuation.
Bayonet 3
Bayonetta is a cult beat’em up that has exploded in popularity in recent years. The inclusion of the titular character in the Super Smash Bros. series as well as the fantastic Bayonet 2 on the Wii U helping the series gain more attention. The third game has been officially announced, but the developers have been silent for a while, so hopefully that will change soon.
Metroid Prime 4
Metroid Prime 4 was announced by Nintendo ages ago. It’s been an unbelievably long time since Nintendo announced anything about Metroid Prime 4, but the game would have undergone a full development restart. However, the company has confirmed that the game is still unfolding, so fans just need to be patient.
Grand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy
Rumors of a Grand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy started circulating recently, and they’ve included a version on the Switch. The rumors have yet to be verified, but a remastered trilogy would make sense to help Rockstar Games fans during the long wait for Grand Theft Auto 6.
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Another trilogy that is reportedly in the process of being remastered, Nintendo is said to have a Metroid Prime Trilogy on the Switch ready to go. If that’s true, it looks like the company is waiting Metroid Prime 4 to get a bit closer to the exit before letting the fans get their hands on it.
A new Donkey Kong game
There have also been rumors in recent months of a new Donkey kong game developed by the team that worked on the very successful Super Mario Odyssey. The series has been relatively dormant since the release of the Wii U Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, so I hope this rumor ends up being true.
Mario kart 9
The Switch already has Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, but it’s been quite a while since this game’s release that rumors started circulating about a Mario kart 9. A sequel will undoubtedly happen, as the series is a popular Nintendo intellectual property staple, so fans will just have to see how long it takes to become a reality.
A remake of Fire Emblem
Fire emblem was a success on Switch with the release of Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Recently, rumors have started to circulate that a remake of a classic Fire emblem is currently in development to serve as a follow-up while a brand new sequel is in the early stages of development.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3
There are rumors that a Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is not only in development to continue the series on Switch, but also close to being completed. With the popularity of the second entry in the series on the console, it wouldn’t be too surprising to see a sequel arrive so soon. It could also be a great opportunity for JRPG fans to get a solid release ahead of other big releases in the genre.
